The research focuses on the catalyst-free cyclocondensation of β-ethylthio-β-indolyl-α, β-unsaturated ketones with hydrazines, leading to the efficient synthesis of 3-pyrazolyl indoles.

The research describes a novel and efficient method for the one-pot synthesis of aryl vinyl ethers using β-phenylselenoethanol as a reagent. The purpose of the study was to develop a more experimentally simple and efficient methodology for the preparation of aryl vinyl ethers, which are key intermediates in various synthetic applications and polymeric materials. The researchers achieved this through a two-step process involving the Mitsunobu reaction of β-phenylselenoethanol with phenols, followed by oxidation-elimination with 30% hydrogen peroxide. The method concluded with good yields (85–90%) and had the advantages of mild reaction conditions and convenient manipulation. Key chemicals used in the process included β-phenylselenoethanol, phenols, diphenyl diselenide, sodium hydride, HMPA, 2-chloroethanol, and various phenolic substrates with different substituents. The study also reported the recovery of diphenyl diselenide in a 60% yield through the addition of hydrazine monohydrate to the aqueous extract containing benzeneseleninic acid.

The synthesis involved various chemicals such as 5-bromo-2-aminopyridine, ethyl bromopyruvate, hydrazine hydrate, aromatic aldehydes, carbon disulfide, potassium hydroxide, and different alkyl/benzyl halides. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed through spectral techniques like FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass spectrometry. The in vivo anticonvulsant properties were assessed using maximal electroshock seizure and subcutaneous pentylene tetrazole methods, with toxicity studies performed using the rotarod method. The research concluded that most of the new compounds exhibited significant anticonvulsant properties without toxicity up to 100 mg/kg, with compounds 3b and 4 showing complete protection against seizures, comparable to the standard drug diazepam. These findings suggest that linking imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines with triazole and hydrazone moieties can lead to potent anticonvulsants with minimal side effects.

These compounds were then evaluated for their potential as antihyperglycemic agents, antioxidants, and their ability to induce DNA cleavage. The study found that certain compounds exhibited strong inhibitory activity against α-amylase, indicating potential antihyperglycemic effects, while others showed significant antioxidant and DNA cleavage activities. The compounds were also analyzed for drug likeliness and drug score, with results suggesting they have favorable properties for further development as potential therapeutic agents.
